You're Gluten Free. What Now?

Adhering to a gluten free lifestyle can be very challenging when you don't know where to start. In this book, I have given personal stories, tips on eating out, some things to look out for when shopping, products that we have found, and some great recipes to get you started.

Who knew that when you have to live a gluten free lifestyle that your whole world would be turned upside-down? Not only having to change your eating habits, your kitchen items, restrictions on where you can eat out; you'll probably have to change personal hygiene products and cleaning products. I have spent a few years now trying to navigate through this disease both for myself and my daughter. In this book, I have given tips on shopping, eating out, our favorite products for both diet and skin, what to look out for when shopping as well as a few great recipes to get you started on your personal journey. If you or someone you love, was just newly diagnosed with Celiac disease, have a gluten intolerance, or your doctor told you to go on a gluten free diet, this book can help you transition into a gluten free lifestyle.

Learning you or a loved one has Celiac disease can be extremely overwhelming. This is what Jennifer Monte learned quickly after her diagnosis. Born in 1980 on Long Island, New York, Jennifer suffered for over 20 years with the symptoms of Celiac disease. Mere months after she was diagnosed, so was her daughter, Lucy at age 8. Not wanting her daughter to grow up missing out on all of the great food and experiences as well as not wanting her to suffer the way that she had growing up, Jennifer decided to do something about it. She researched and learned how to live relatively comfortably with this disease. She created some great recipes and tips to make both of their lives easier. Jennifer then decided to put it on paper to help the ever growing number of people that are diagnosed every day, in hopes to save them the stress and hopelessness that she once felt.
